Experienced Veterinary Professional

Pet care experience

I began working as a veterinary technician at 14 and presently have over 15 years of experience in vet medicine with the last ten spent as a senior technician at an emergency facility in Maryland. I left the field a few years ago and moved to Charlottesville in 2021 to pursue an engineering doctorate, but my love for animals has never diminished. Thanks to my background I’m comfortable administering both oral and injectable medications and am exceptionally qualified to provide special needs care. If you're looking for a provider who is attentive, educated, and highly experienced then I'm your guy. Looking forward to hearing from you and meeting your pet!

Was so kind from the beginning and took amazing care of our dog while sending daily photos to us. Highly recommend.

Ryan was extremely communicative and made the whole process very easy. He sent pictures every day, gave me ease while away, and was super understanding with my own delayed travel. Thanks again!

Ryan was fantastic with my dog Echo who can be a little rambunctious. Very friendly and communicative - I couldn't recommend him enough!
